Director Biography - Carolina Costa

Carolina Costa currently works as producer, comedy actress and press agent for Atalahalta Productions in Geneva. She produces, among others, the TV-WEB series “Bienvenue Chez Nous” (Welcome to our home), “Ma femme est Pasteur” (My wife is a pastor) and “Il était une fois les gens” (Face to Faith).
She’s also a pastor of the Protestant Church of Geneva @LeLAB for young adults at the Plainpalais Church and has written a gamebook for couples “Marriage: on the way to adventure!” published in Switzerland and France.
Carolina was born in the Principality of Monaco to an Italian father and Danish mother. She moved to Geneva at the age of 4 where she completed her education in this canton, including her studies at the Autonomous Faculty of Protestant Theology where she graduated in 2004. Once she obtained her master’s degree, she was selected to attend the singing school of Paris to improve her singing and acting skills. This is where she met Victor Costa with whom she started a romantic relationship which continues to this day and which gave rise to all the Atalahalta productions. In 2007, attracted again by the religious vocation, she interned at the Protestant Church of Geneva to become a pastor. For the first year she worked at the Saint-Pierre-Fusterie parish; the second year was full of changes and new discoveries at l’Espace Fusterie (the Fusterie Space), at the AJEG Youth Centre (Youth Centre of the Protestant Church of Geneva), with religious emissions on RTS (Swiss broadcasting company) and finally at the chaplaincy of the University Hospitals of Geneva. She has also served as pastor in the Servette-Vieusseux parish and later in the Salève region. She is now a part-time pastor @LeLAB at the Plainpalais Church: a laboratory for young adults of up to about 40 to explore new ways of living one’s faith.
